International ClassC07D 501/28ClaimsWe claim: 1. A process for preparing a concentrated (≥10% weight/volume) aqueous solution of desacetyl 7-glutaryl ACA from an aqueous solution containing the desacetyl 7-glutaryl ACA in lower concentration, which comprises the steps of: (a) providing an aqueous solution containing desacetyl 7-glutaryl ACA; (b) contacting the solution with cyclohexanone at a pH of from about 1.5 to about 3 so as to extract the desacetyl 7-glutaryl ACA into the cyclohexanone solvent phase; (c) separating the cyclohexanone solvent phase from the aqueous phase: (d) contacting the cyclohexanone phase with water at a pH of from about 5 to about 7.5; and (e) separating the aqueous phase containing the desired concentrated solution of desacetyl 7-glutaryl ACA. 2. The process of claim 1 wherein the aqueous solution in Step (a) is a processed fermentation broth. 3. The process of claim 1 or claim 2 wherein Step(d) includes use of an acetate buffer. 4. A process for preparing a concentrated (≥10% weight/volume) aqueous solution of desacetyl cephalosporin D from an aqueous solution containing the desacetyl cephalosporin D in lower concentration, which comprises the steps of (a) providing an aqueous solution containing desacetyl cephalosporin D; (b) contacting the solution with cyclohexanone at a pH of from about 1.5 to about 3 so as to extract the desacetyl cephalosporin D into the cyclohexanone solvent phase; (c) separating the cyclohexanone solvent phase from the aqueous phase; (d) contacting the cyclohexanone phase with water at a pH of from about 5 to about 7.5; and (e) separating the aqueous phase containing the desired concentrated solution of desacetyl cephalosporin D. 5. The process of claim 4 wherein the aqueous solution in step (a) is a processed fermentation broth. 6. The process of claim 4 or claim 5 wherein step (d) includes use of an acetate buffer.
